About this listen

My husband was not a monster. No matter what they say....

The day my husband, Michael, stepped in front of a lorry after being questioned by the police, my world fell apart. He was devoted to me and our six-year-old daughter. But they’d connected him to the disappearance of a young mother from our tiny village.

Now I stand at Michael’s funeral, clutching my little girl’s hand, with tears in my eyes as I insist to all our friends that he died an innocent man. Yet the questions have started, and nothing I say will stop them digging for the truth.

But none of them can read the secrets in my heart, or know about the phone I found hidden in his toolbox....

I’m determined that my daughter will not remember her father as a monster. I will erase any hint of wrongdoing in this house whatever the cost.

Because to keep my daughter safe, the last thing I need is for people to start looking at me....

A completely gripping psychological thriller from the author of the number one best seller The Marriage. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on The Train and The Wife Between Us then you will love The Widow.

Unexpected

I started this book not expecting the outcome. It definitely surpassed my expectations & I wasn’t disappointed. It was a bit slow to start but picked up and kept me listening.

Twisty Tale

This is a believable who done it, masterfully read that kept me “turning the pages” until the final conclusion.

Not Much Foul Language

I appreciate reads that don’t contain cursing or sexual content, and this one passed my tests. The ending seemed a bit romantic or contrived. They emotions of the widow where well described and took me back to my own experience. I will look for more from this author.

A British mystery and a suspenseful conspiracy

I’m thrilled to be listening to “The Widow” by K.L. Slater for the second time, and I know it’s going to be just as excellent as the first. Author K.L. Slater has once again delivered a captivating thriller, expertly narrated by the talented Lucy Price-Lewis. This intricate murder mystery unfolds chapter by chapter, presenting multiple characters’ perspectives and keeping listeners on the edge of their seats. With its zigzagging plot, surprising twists, and stunning conclusion, this audiobook demands close attention to detail. The pairing of Slater's writing and Price-Lewis’ narration is perfect. Originally available as part of Audible Plus catalogue at no additional cost, I recently purchased it for $6.99 after several years, a testament to its enduring appeal. Highly recommended, exceptional storytelling and narration.

I dug it.

The narrator did an excellent job. I could easily tell the different characters. The writing was done well. Some of it was pretty predictable but just enough twists to still keep you interested anyway :)

Good.

I enjoyed this book. I could feel the emotions. I recommend this book. An example of faith in the people you love when it seems like nothing makes that possible.

Great story

I’m glad I ignored the negative reviews and listened to the book. It was full of unexpected twists and turns, and yet, each twist was quite believable. Narrator did a great job as well.

Subpar editing

The subpar editing is why this book is included w/ membership. If this book has not been updated by 4/19, don't buy or use credit.
